Bacon Bacon Truck finds a brick-and-mortar spot in San Francisco

The Bacon Bacon truck exploded — yes, exploded (figuratively, that is) — onto the local mobile food scene over the summer. A month after opening, it filmed a segment with Epic Meal Time.

Now, proprietor Jim Angelus has found himself a true brick-and-mortar space for Bacon Bacon. He’s moving into a portion of the former Ashbury Market (205 Frederick St.), but there are a few twists.

First of all, the focus will continue to be the truck, which will continue making its Bay Area rounds. The location will also serve as a commissary kitchen, meaning that Angelus and co. no longer have to trek back and forth from South San Francisco for all their prep work.

The address is only permitted to sell to-go items, so that’s what they’ll do. There will be good coffee and breakfast items (ex: cheddar bacon scones, bacon-egg-cheese sandwich, bacon croissants) in the morning; and then towards midday, all the lunch offerings. Plus, the added space will allow Bacon Bacon to do a little more menu experimentation at the shop.

Also sharing the space will be Three Babes Bakeshop, which will sell their signature sweet and savory pies.

The space is nearly ready to roll, with just a paint job and aesthetics work to be done. Angelus is hoping to open the week of Thanksgiving, but the exact date still a moving target.

Fun fact: Arnold Eric Wong, the building owner, knows Angelus from their E&O Trading days together; for more on the Ashbury Market’s future, check this week’s print Scoop.
